Two new screens are coming at the Muranow cinema in Warsaw this autumn. The cinema's still operating over the summer while being refurbished and rebuilt.

KOLLEKTIVET (THE COMUNE)

Watchable. The 70s are not my favourite period - the fashion doesn't appeal to me and everyone smokes. At the same time it's when free love was attempted. And never again. It just didn't work. In the film a couple fears alienation in a large house and starts a commune which fails on so many levels: property-wise and in relationships. The story is moving. But it's just a manifestation of all the myths about human nature modern psychology has disproved already.
